Top tips
Park Lake
Heavy feeding of pellet and method mixes has scored particularly well, with large catches of 3-5lb fish possible. Fish largely follow feeding winds, but really respond to regular feeding.
Oak Lake (specimen)
The conservative use of pellet and boilies is a particularly successful method, with fish often being caught from marginal feeding areas.
Alder Lake
Maggot and sweetcorn over fine groundbaits scores well in this lake, with mixed catches coming from all over.
Bread is also used consistently on all lake
